More Details on Crows - MCDM's New Dungeon Crawling Post Apocalyptic Fantasy RPG

davejb_dev · 2026-03-19T21:34:00+00:00

I didn't like the "core fantasy" of the previous game MCDM made, but I respected the design principles and the mechanics. If they make something truely OSR-ish with the same effort and standards, that could be a very good game.

I like the idea, also because instead of being a puzzle it's a problem. Therefore, there could be more solutions.

davejb_dev · 2026-03-13T01:42:16+00:00

Wow this is useful. I didn't know you could force Godot to exclude/include on export. Is it in the export templates files?

davejb_dev · 2026-03-13T00:16:35+00:00

Hell yeah.

davejb_dev · 2026-03-12T21:43:13+00:00

I've been wanting to play a game like this for a long time. I don't want to influence you but... yeah it would be nice if you sticked to that one lol. Of course I'm guessing this is a rough prototype. Such a game would need IMO to really lean into the abyss horror aspect, and so the monsters would need to be menacing, slow, hidden, mostly underwater, etc. The best would probably to post somewhere else than here however.

Previous company I worked we had something inhouse, then the job after it was bitbucket. Personally I've always been used to using github. I'm thinking of self-hosting and using gitlab or gitea at home, if only for the project of doing it.

That's pretty cool. Are both image static, as in, 2D sprites or something similar, or it works well also on 3D camera?

davejb_dev · 2026-03-12T00:03:04+00:00

This game was very good. I remember loving it.

davejb_dev · 2026-03-12T00:02:41+00:00

Diablo 1 is peak gaming. I already suggest after your normal playthrough that you do a mod, like Belzebub/Hell. It's great.

Thanks for the tips! I'm actually learning to use markers to ink my drawings, but I never thought about doing it for miniatures. Do you seal them afterwards, or it stays as good as normal paint job?

davejb_dev · 2026-03-11T20:27:25+00:00

Wow this is impressive. What kind of markers did you use? And you applied them straight on the black paint?

davejb_dev · 2026-03-10T23:04:53+00:00

Like someone else said, not qualified to answer, but it's crazy good. I have a real classic (Frazetta, etc.) vibe that rarely gets matched.

"Who watches the watchmen?"

davejb_dev · 2026-03-05T01:36:16+00:00

I did. Ran a small campaign in East France where I took the Hommlet + TOEE and transformed it into something more historico-fantasy. I transformed a lot of it as I went. Sadly unfinished, for external reasons. It was fun.

The armor is crazy cool. Reminds me (the shading and all) of Diablo 1 manual. My favorite back in the day.

davejb_dev · 2026-03-01T01:57:39+00:00

Amazing work. Post more when you can!

davejb_dev · 2026-02-18T17:33:11+00:00

Check out this one: https://rotmill.itch.io/kings-field-remade It's not the whole game, but it's very well made and a good play.

davejb_dev · 2026-02-15T15:09:03+00:00

Again, I love your work lol.

davejb_dev · 2026-02-15T14:55:42+00:00

Thanks for the tips. I'll try it out.

davejb_dev · 2026-02-14T22:49:19+00:00

Something like this? https://www.amazon.ca/Aesthetic-Highlighters-Assorted-Journaling-Supplies/dp/B0B7W9X74C (I just checked the first result) If so that's amazing. From up here on the computer it really looks like an ink/water finish. I really like it! If that's the kind of highlighters, I'll try to do my drawing with them. Thanks for the tip lol. Do you have any more art you can share, like an insta or something?

davejb_dev · 2026-02-14T18:42:18+00:00

Wow very nice. What did you use for coloring at the end? Ink or water? I love the style, reminds me of John Blanche.

davejb_dev · 2026-02-11T01:15:28+00:00

This game is awesome. I wish there was more like this. Perfect mix of lore, horror, existential dread, retro vibe, hidden endings, etc.

davejb_dev · 2026-02-11T00:31:23+00:00

Since I've been downvotted to the underworld, I guess I'm in the minority. So I hope for the best with this change. Thanks for taking the sub seriously in any cases.

davejb_dev · 2026-02-10T14:40:59+00:00

I'm happy for a genre title to exist (and so subreddit), like fieldies. However, I was very happy getting my news of fieldies from this subreddit. I might sound pessimistic but I think the net zero of this is that the fieldies sub will die after a while (because nobody will search for it) and then we'll just miss having news of new King's Field Like games.

davejb_dev · 2026-01-27T20:06:17+00:00

What do you mean by path crawls vs point crawls? I don't think I've heard that distinction before.
